If SSA see's that the doctor has lowered my dosage, will they assume I am getting better and possibly take away my benefits? I have been worried sick about this. please help!

BTW, my review is not for 5 to 7 years with little hope of improvement.
Didn't you call SSA a few weeks ago and told them you were feeling better? That sent up all kinds of red flags. I wouldn't worry about a review. I think its 7 questions and one of the questions is-has your overall health improved. If the answer is no-then you probably remain on SSDI. I just received the remainder of my 401k-only 40 bucks and they taxed it even though it shouldn't because my only income is SSDI and LTD. I wonder if SSA will question that as earnings?
